If you cannot handle rape, or want to know about the scene: Daphne rapes Simon when he is drunk and half asleep because she sees it as an opportunity to have children. When he tells her to stop, asks her what she is doing, and tries to take her off, she pushes him down until he finishes. It explains what she is doing as well as what both her and Simon are thinking, which is why I have it as graphic.chloebethx_'s review against another edition

I would have rated this book much higher if a certain disturbing scene had been excluded from the novelSpoiler
Truly, the prose and build up to this romance was perfectly done and Julia Quinn masterfully had me on the edge of my seat.Graphic: Sexual assault
